"It is important to recognize #OptOutside because the #OptOutside movement is about improving, health, mental wellness, and learning about new outdoor activities in the community and the world. It is about bringing families and friends together to experience and enjoy the many different types of outdoor adventures that are available. #OptOutside is about being happy, feeling energize, laughter and spending quality time with oneself or family and friends. It is about getting out the house/apartment and getting the body to move. It is about living our best life!
It is also important to recognize #OptOutside because it is a world-wide movement that offers us the choice of going outside and learning new, interesting and fun activities that ultimately can result in world-wide improved health for all humankind."
